X-wing in NZ

By Prof.cogsworthy, in X-Wing Off-Topic

Hi all, I live in new Zealand, a place where x-wing (1st and 2nd edition) is rare and expensive, do any of you know of any good place to buy x-wing, especially 1st edition?

cheers!

Hi there, and welcome to the forum (and this crazy hobby).

1st Edition's expansions haven't been printed for almost 2 years now (since the launch of 2nd Edition), so they're going to be increasingly difficult to get hold of as time goes by. A quick Google search though shows a couple of NZ online stores still showing stock of certain expansions, for prices roughly comparable to what you'd expect to find them for in Europe or the UK. So I suppose it depends if you're looking for anything in particular as some will be rarer (and consequently more expensive , cf. Gunboats) than others.

Always worth keeping an eye on eBay as well; a lot of stores auction off their old stock there.

Hello,

Try this guy, https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/stevescollectableslimited?_trksid=p2047675.l2559

The ships he has left are very reasonable and he ships to NZ for £7.95 with each additional ship being £1.95

This E-Wing https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/STAR-WARS-X-WING-MINIATURES-E-WING-BRAND-NEW-CLEARANCE/163749682206?hash=item26203ddc1e:g:szMAAOSwdUVdDquE would work out at about $26 NZ with each additional one being cheaper.

Don't know if that's good or bad, but worth a look.

Cheers
